Overview

Product overview

Biocomma SPE/Flash cartridge frits are produced with a dedicated process that covers careful raw-material selection, mold optimization, flow-rate testing and ERP-based traceability. Biocomma has also developed frits with different pore sizes to serve small-particle sorbents under gravity flow.

The UHMW-PE raw material has a water absorption below 0.01%, a more even particle diameter and is strictly tested for solvent compatibility. Precision molding keeps the frit diameter accurate and a close match to the inner diameter of the cartridge tube; each batch is tested so that flow rate is stable from batch to batch. Biocomma notes that frit diameter relative to the empty tube strongly affects flow, using a 9.0 mm, 40%-porosity frit as an example whose pore is reduced by 37.24% if its diameter is compressed by 0.2 mm.

Frits with 80-100 µm pores suit gravity flow, while pores below 20 µm suit sorbents with small particles. The catalog lists sizes from 5.8 mm to 49.5 mm in diameter, plus custom sizes.

Features

Key features

  • 01

    Low water absorption

    UHMW-PE raw material with water absorption below 0.01% and strict solvent-compatibility testing.

  • 02

    Precise diameter match

    Precision molding matches the frit to the cartridge tube inner diameter, which is important for stable flow.

  • 03

    Batch-to-batch flow control

    Every batch is tested to keep flow rate stable between batches.

  • 04

    Pore sizes for the application

    80-100 µm pores suit gravity flow; pores below 20 µm suit small-particle sorbents.

  • 05

    Broad size range

    Catalog diameters from 5.8 to 49.5 mm, including 96-well plate sizes, plus custom sizes.

  • 06

    Traceable production

    Each production step is recorded in an ERP management system.
